Streamers who utilized Twitch for streaming movies and TV shows may face DMCA bans, as warned by djWHEAT. It appears that content creators have chosen to focus on streaming movies and shows through Twitch.
The prominent streaming platform Twitch is once again under scrutiny due to the issue of copyrighted content. Twitch is diligently working to remove streamers who incorporate movies and shows in their streams. The platform prohibits users who infringe the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If you are unsure whether the content you are using violates these rights, utilize the tools provided by the platform to determine if the materials are original. Twitch is collaborating with record labels in an effort to combat piracy and safeguard the rights of owners. However, despite many streamers adhering to the rules and refraining from playing copyrighted music, some are increasingly broadcasting their reactions to movies and TV shows.
CohhCarnage, a popular Twitch creator, addressed this issue in a tweet on December 26. The tweet expressed the creator's concern about the permissibility of streaming movies or TV shows while reacting to them. This tweet elicited responses from numerous Twitch users.
The head of Twitch Community Production, Marcus Graham, also known as djWHEAT, responded to the tweet by emphasizing that such actions are clearly prohibited and the company is actively working to halt such streams by banning the creators of the content. He predicted that creators who incorporate movies and shows in their streams will eventually be removed from Twitch.
